Another Friday night means another exciting Mayoiga episode. Let’s dive right into the details, shall we? From the bus driver and his haunting dead daughter to the characters’ deteriorating personalities, this episode is packed with thrilling moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat!

The Haunting Village

As the characters grow more tired and sleepy, they begin losing their sense of self. Maimai delivers a chilling message to Valkana and the audience: leave the village or risk losing who you are. The tension rises as the village reveals its dark secrets.

Misogynistic Tendencies

Have you noticed the sudden misogyny in the characters? First Jigoku, and now Valkana. It seems like the village is taking its toll, driving the characters to exhibit toxic behavior randomly. The atmosphere grows even more ominous.

The Useless Fire Arrows

Strange fire arrows rain from the sky, but to everyone’s surprise, they don’t cause any damage. Jigoku no Gouka explains that the arrows are harmless, leaving the characters and the audience perplexed. The mystery of the village deepens.

Psychological Scars

Koharun seeks out Speedstar, intending to deepen his psychological scars. However, the resulting scene falls flat, lacking the gripping dialogue we’d hope for. Mayoiga struggles to create engaging conversations that captivate the audience.

Embracing Trauma

Yottsun becomes the first member of the group to fully embrace his Nanaki, teaching us the importance of accepting pain and the bittersweet aspects of life. Meanwhile, Kamiyama’s Nanaki remains a mystery. The path to the village unfolds under specific conditions, leaving Mitsumune unable to return.

A Hero’s Journey

Mitsumune’s father unintentionally prevents him from returning to the village by minimizing his psychological scars. This obstacle highlights the importance of emotional turmoil for the characters. The story takes an unexpected turn when the bus driver mysteriously reappears to aid Mitsumune.

Nanaki Revelations

The bus driver’s Nanaki reveals that Reiji is also a Nanaki, specifically Masaki’s Nanaki. The Nanakis seem eager to communicate, and their intentions slowly become clear. As Mitsumune progresses towards the village, the bus driver and Yottsun disappear, having embraced their Nanaki.

Love and Betrayal

Masaki wanders the woods, mourning Reiji’s absence. Mikage and Lovepon, still convinced she is a witch, attack her. However, Mitsumune’s impact on Masaki leads her to plea for his help. The stage is set for Mitsumune to become the hero and save the day.

The Growing Threat

As Mitsumune approaches, Speedstar’s Nanaki grows larger. In stories with well-developed characters, worsening psychological scars lead to more intense situations. However, Mayoiga takes a different approach, opting for a larger monster instead. The lack of suspense and creepy atmosphere is evident.

The Final Verdict

This episode falls short in suspense and fails to maintain the mystery that initially captivated us. The story’s appeal has dwindled, but we are drawn to finish it due to the sunk cost fallacy. Will Mayoiga redeem itself in the remaining episodes? Only time will tell.
